Hi,

I've got a new song out. It's called "sitting Duck" - you can check it

Featuring:
Avenger and Pigments synths
various odds and ends
MODO Bass
Superior 3 Drums
and me playing Strats and a Tele

Also, there's a remake of one I did from 2004 - featuring samples of David Kolker (great guitarist from NYC).
It's called "I Still Don't Know"

and all the normal streaming services.
    
As usual, let me know what you think.

Nice one!
So a couple questions, if you don't mind.
1) Did you program SD3 or use the included midi or a hybred of the two?
2) Amp sim (which one) or amp?
The modo bass sounds pretty dam good (I'm a Trilian user).
Not a big fan of "falling apart" at the end, but your tune, your production; just me...

re I Don't Know, another nice one. But I'm confused, Kolker is the singer and/or the guitar player?

Hi Tom,

Thanks a lot for listening!

1) I always start with the MIDI grooves in SD3, but then I edit them a lot, to make them fit in.

2) All the amps are either Mercuriall reAxis or S-Gear (usually Wayfarer)

3) David Kolker is a singer/guitarist/song writer - the samples on this song are of him singing, and there's one short one from a guitar solo (and then I echo'd it)

This is way cool!  I really love the feel that something is "broke" or malfunctioning.  The "I don't Know" thing is catchy.  Your playing is stellar.  Loved the whole production.
